Day 3

We met for service at their (tiny) Kindgdom hall this morning. I see why they are building a new one. They had a nice big group for service, although, I believe many of them were from Santa Cruz and are up here to help build the hall for a week. We split into different groups and walked to the territory, the whole morning, from about 9 to 11 a.m. It was getting hot at that point and our feet hurt so bad, but it was definitely worth it! It was so nice to meet the brothers and sisters and learn about them. At the end of the morning, a few from the hall were so nice and offered to go out to lunch with us. They took us to a delicious Chinese restaraunt and were very fun to talk to. They tried hard to communicate with us, either in English or in Spanish, so that we could understand. I even got some of their humor haha. We got invited to go hiking up one of the mountains later this afternoon with a group from the hall. I´m sure it will be beautiful! Tomorrow we will go in service again for the morning and then their meeting is tomorrow night at 7:30. Then they work on their new Kingdom hall on Sundays through Thursdays. I forgot to bring my camera cord with me to the internet cafe (sorry) but I will try hard to remember next time so you can see some pictures!
